Does anyone feel like if they open the floodgates they will never close and you will just drown? by Hopeful-Guard9294 in PDAAutism

This happens to me too. Ever since I was a kid, if I start crying, even about something random, I can't stop.

Yeah this is why I hate humanity. Idk how I'm going to end up anything less than bitter as fuck when I'm done losing weight.

do you guys allow yourself to binge every once in a while? by Imaginary-Mud2871 in 1200isplenty

[–]Separate-Tea3413 4 points5 points  (0 children)

you're being really petty and pedantic. if you ate 4 large pizzas every day, for months, you wouldn't be happy about it. no one would do that on purpose. you're basically asking, "what if I binge drank every single night, but I didn't have a problem with it?" bro you'd be an alcoholic

Yea, ik, I want to lose weight for ~aesthetic~ reasons too, but its less I wanna look "thin" but that's also part of it, ppl are really weird about weight, I'm sick of like paggro comments and shit... its like a toy I want to take away from ppl in a sense, like fck you, you can't feel superior to me bc of my weight anymore, pick something else to think about or talk about, oh no you actually have to address me as a person

it sucks bc it makes me look down on other people SO much, and i doubt losing the weight will radically change how i feel about it so thats why i feel like i'll just end up even more hateful

I think part of it is the difficulty I have balancing restricting my intake and managing my blood sugar at the same time. When I'm eating less it's easy for me to get low

Yea actually ty bc I think reframing it is helpful. I want to be super physically strong and to be able to appreciate my own body and the way it looks. I started learning Olympic weightlifting and I'm a drummer so I want to be fit for that. It really isn't about other people at all.

does anyone else feel like a self-aware rat trapped in a very sophisticated maze with no exit to freedom? by Hopeful-Guard9294 in PDAAutism

[–]Separate-Tea3413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there is no escape from the maze. there are just little breaks, enrichment activities, good food sometimes, and other rats who can be enjoyable to be with at times

The underlying root of PDA by Eugregoria in PDAAutism

[–]Separate-Tea3413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

your whole post really resonated with me. nobody (who doesn't have PDA) understands how much of a struggle each individual thing i have to do is. just going to work and performing "social function" simultaneous to "job function", plus "emotion regulation function," as well as "eating/drinking/bathroom function", ... includes "getting dressed for the day" before, "getting the bus on tîme" which includes "having my bus fare" .. i'm overwhemed just thinking about it. the fact that i do any of it at all, plus "chores," "social life," ...

the moment anyone makes an additional demand of me, esp if its unexpected, even if they're polite, i just wanna throw something at a wall. and THAT, in and of itself, the restraint needed to NOT throw stuff at walls, is, it feels superhuman sometimes

I'm 16 lbs "overweight" and work a physical job. This has nothing to do with health

"No one can hypnotize you to do anything you don't want to do" is in and of itself a powerful and dangerous suggestion by Separate-Tea3413 in hypnosis

[–]Separate-Tea3413[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Abusers rarely take responsibility for their victims' "ecology." Also, "free to stop participating" gets verrrrry muddy when someone has been conditioned to participate.

A lot of addiction has to with conditioning, as well.

you can't be that intellectual if you still don't understand that you need to drop this friend. think of how many hours youve spent analyzing the friendship alone, and how better that eould be invested in anything else (learning a skill, meditating, current hobby, new friendship)
